Title:
  6.06 to 8.04 fails on PowerPC

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager-core

  Attached is the main.log from my attempt to upgrade with UpdateManager. It appears that debug creates a repository to satisfy the upgrade and then when fetching from that repository it fails. The repository does not, in fact, exist, being a PowerPC port. There are other arches available at:
  "http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/dapper-backports/main/debian-installer/" (like ia64) but not the called for: "binary-powerpc/Packages.gz"
  The upgrade fails and the system is returned to previous state. Modifying /etc/apt/sources has no effect and the repository is recreated each time the upgrade is attempted.

  apt-cache policy update-manager
  update-manager:
    Installed: 0.42.2ubuntu22.2
  Ubuntu 6.06 on a Mac TiBook PPC 1Ghz
